US police have arrested a suspect after six people were killed at an Independence Day parade near Chicago.
Police say Robert E Crimo III, aged 22, was detained after a brief chase.
At least 24 other people were injured in the city of Highland Park, Illinois, after a gunman used a high-powered rifle to target people from a rooftop.
It is the latest mass shooting to hit the US after one in every week of 2022, leaving President Joe Biden “shocked” by the violence.
The event was scheduled to include floats, marching bands, and community entertainment as part of the city’s Independence Day celebrations. END
